CHELSEA FC️️

🚨🗣 Thiago Silva via Instagram: "Massive team effort today despite the numerical inferiority." "Keep going lads! 💙."

Back in action at Stamford Bridge. Come on Chelsea! 👊 #CFC | #CheBri

Thomas Tuchel: “Chelsea and Abramovich had a nice house on the training ground at Cobham. I lived there for a few months during Covid as my family was still in Paris. It gave me a special feeling of being a coach and doing nothing else. That was part of the success.” (Via ispo)

Mauricio Pochettino: "Tough... it's to tell the truth, to show what we didn't do. It's not to blame them, it's to blame everyone - us first. Maybe our approach wasn't right. That's for us to pay attention and to have different approach in the future. We are young team..." "I feel happy because the week was good. Of course, I was not happy after the last game. We know we need to perform well, to recover the points." "They are doing a fantastic job. They are a very good team with a very good coaching staff. Roberto is doing a fantastic job." On December targets: "I want to see we have three points more after Sunday. Then Man United... game by game." On Caicedo: "It's a process. The problem is always the temptation to analyse the player from one season to another. It's not fair. Different environment, different moments. Robert arrived late, Moi arrived when we were playing and no pre-season..." "It's completely unfair to compare players from one season to another. We, of course, have no doubts that they {Sanchez and Caicedo] will perform in the way we expect." On Moises Caicedo's form: "It's easy to blame the money, different aspects. He's a human being. It's about time to fit and perform. That's why we have no doubt that it's only time." On VAR: "It's not technology, it's the driver. It's not the technology, it's how you assess the actions. That's the most difficult thing to put all in the same line." On Reece James: "Step by step he is improving his fitness. He was a bit tired when he got the second yellow card. He realised he is far away from his best condition. He is working really hard. He is feeling sorry [for the red card]..." That’s all from the gaffer for now. More quotes at 10:30pm.

🚨🔵 Chelsea are prepared to recall Andrey Santos in January as they’re not happy with current situation on loan at Nottingham Forest. Internal decision already made, now just waiting to make it formal in the next weeks if there will be no changes. [Fabrizio Romano]

Charging up. 🔋

Andrey Santos is expected to be recalled by Chelsea from his Nottingham Forest loan spell in January, but regulations will limit his next move. New FIFA regulations state clubs can only have seven players out overseas loans at one time and Chelsea have reached that number. [NizaarKinsella, Standard Sport]

Pushing on. ✊

🚨 The feedback from the club is still the same, Chelsea trust Mauricio Pochettino and believe he is the right man for this project. Chelsea position is still to trust Mauricio Pochettino - his job is not at risk at this stage, Chelsea know it’s a young team and will take some time, the club are not so happy with the current situation and want to see improvements, but owners and directors trust Pochettino. 🔗 Fabrizio Romano - Sky Italia

⚪️ Ancelotti on Real Madrid plans for goalkeepers: “Lunin has been ready but Kepa will be back for Granada and if he's ok he will play”. #LoanWatch NB: If you’re good, you’re good.

League table as it stands.

If you don’t laugh, you’ll cry 🤣

Chelsea often look vulnerable from set pieces and that has to come down to coaching. Despite spending nearly £300million on midfielders — although Romeo Lavia has yet to make his debut due to injury — they are not offering much protection to the back four. 🔗 Simon Johnson - The Athletic
